Thanks, your prompts are so simple yet often provide great results. My anti ai family members emphasize that the amazing resulting art is a testament to the programmers that wrote the software then a users prompts. It is much more than that, an amalgamation of art history, theory, past and present,….’What a time to be alive’.
@@thaeyne Apart from a couple of minor disappointments, such as the Donatello, I think that you made some amazing discoveries. Are you going to pursue some of the more successful combinations even further? For example, the Limbourg Brothers did amazing large format images. I wonder how the style would depict contemporary events such as the the Superbowl or the Olympics or the 2024 US Presidential Election? I wonder how they would interpret other large format subjects such as famous battle paintings? The detailing of the Northern Renaissance Flemish Masters was also very impressive. They way that they capture their surroundings is amazing. I wonder how they would depict past lost civilizations such as Knossos, Carnac, Skara Brae and Perseopolis? I imagine it would lead to some very interesting images. Which ones stood out most to you?
I think I personally liked the Limbourg Brothers the most. I really like the vivid colors, the blue was just mesmerizing. Combining these artists with past civilizations does sound like it would be very interesting. I don't think I will go much further with these particular combinations. I mostly wanted to see what they do.
This was so interesting and different from any other AI art work videos, Your presentations are always so well done, thanks for all the research and time you put into this.
I didn't think I'd like these artists but wow, the images are stunning! Your prompts above the images are in the incorrect order but it's easy to figure out that "spaceship" and "vector art" should be switched, for example. I especially liked the Spaceship and Mecha results. I'll give these a try, thanks for the video and ideas!
Thanks! somebody mentioned there was something wrong with the captions of the images, but I couldn't figure out what it was! Now that you pointed it out, I see it, but I guess I'll let them be for this video and try my hardest to double check them for the next video.
I really like the way you combined the ideas with the artists. I appreciate the descriptions you did of the artists, too. I admit that my screen is kind of small for watching this particular video, so I couldn't always read your on-screen descriptions. I was using my tablet this time instead of my computer. I noticed that someone made a comment that they didn't match up, but I just enjoyed the video and couldn't read them, anyway. Lol! Thank you for the interesting videos that you create. ❤️🎨
Well, maybe I am being too harsh. You had many difficult names to deal with in this video. They were difficult for me, anyway, when I was in art school back when dinosaurs roamed the earth in that previous century :) So... I need to cut you a lotta slack. And...now giving a thumbs up because this is a really good video really :)
I don't know if this is interesting or if it tells us anything about Midjourney's inner workings but here's what happened. After watching your video about 6 hours ago, and it's a wonderful video, I prompted "Hubert Van Eyck spaceship --ar 9:16 --seed 777", exactly as was in the video. I got the exact same result. My four spaceships looked exactly the same as your four spaceships for this prompt. I changed my seed # and got different spaceships. But I've used 777 for my seed many times before and I've always gotten different results from yours...I mean, not even close. I didn't put yours and mine side by side zoomed in to scrutinize every detail, but they were, viewing both, flipping back and forth at full screen view, identical.
You are explaining how seed numbers work. That is why I use those, so people can get the exact same images if they want to and if they are lucky with it. It all comes down to which compute resources your prompt ends up at. By the sound of it, I think you may normally use relaxed speed. That might explain why you got the same result this time, but different results before - normally I use fast hours for my prompts, but this time I used relaxed speed when prompting these images, because I ran out of fast hours. I have noticed that the speed matters, you always get slightly different images with the same seed number when using relaxed, fast or turbo speeds. And there are some cases where you can end up with different looking images even if your speed is the same - it just means that your images are processed on a different compute resource "behind the curtain". And if you don't specify the seed number, each time it will be assigned to an image anyway automatically, but it will be a random number out of over 4 billion choices.
@thaeyne thank you for explaining it all. I am actually using fast speed. I'll try again later on relaxed too. Btw, I love when your videos begin with characters that look like they're doing the explaining. They add something, and with AI developing the way it is, they might soon be really doing the explaining!
Interesting content for Midjourney creators. NB: for video, I find it way better and pleasant when the voice-over is recorded with the real author's voice. AI voice-over is bearable yet. But I really don't like AI woman avatar appearing at the begining, it feels so weird and unpleasant to me that I stopped watching the vidéo after 15 sec ! AI avatar adds no real value to the video and it's event worse beacause it's distracting away from watching the content confortably. The youtuber practice I like and follow the most are the one that make the effort to show up in vignette with their real authentic voice.
I understand your preferences. However, I have my reasons of doing my videos in this manner. Insecurities about my voice and appearance are the main reason, along with an accent that is worse to listen to than an AI avatar. Using AI to overcome my shortcomings and surroundings is at the moment the only way I am able to post videos at all.
This was very good... BUT when I heard you pronounce the great artist Titian TITTYun... well... that was just too ridiculously awful. Funny if I was still in third grade maybe. But I'm pretty sure you weren't exactly aiming for that audience. Jeez. No thumbs up. Just too much.
